Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 320 - 196: Seeking the Truth
In the photo, the girl had delicate features, with a sweet smile on her face, and the general outline between her eyebrows and eyes strikingly resembled Song Xiaoyin.
This revelation left Bei Ran utterly shocked!
Song Chenxi shared the surname Song with Song Xiaoyin and Song Xuyao. π§πβ―ππππππ°π·π¦π.πΈβ΄π
Song Chenxi and Song Xuyao were siblings, while Song Xiaoyin was Gu Qingchenβs biological mother.
Their relationships were incredibly complicated!
But one thing struck Bei Ran as very odd: she had seen Song Xingbangβs gravestone, which had the names of his daughter Song Xiaoyin and granddaughter Song Ziyu, but there was no mention of Song Xuyao or Song Chenxi.
If Bei Ranβs guess was right, there must be some close or distant blood relation between Song Chenxi and Gu Qingchen.
As soon as this thought crossed her mind, it struck her like a thunderbolt.
In ancient society it was common for distant or close relatives to marry, which meant reinforcing familial bonds.
But this is modern society, and Gu Qingchen, a medical student, was a doctor. He knew better than anyone what marrying and having children with a close or distant relative could mean.
So why would he let Song Chenxi have his child...
At this moment, Song Xuyao was squatting in front of Song Chenxiβs gravestone, crying like a helpless child!
"Chenxi, Chenxi..." Song Xuyao called out her name!
Suddenly, Song Xuyao, as if driven mad, pulled Bei Ran up from the ground, "Do you still believe Gu Qingchen is a good person now?"
"What does it matter whether I believe it or not?" Bei Ran frowned.
Song Xuyao said with a sneer, "If you believe him, go explain it to Chenxi. Go explain to her in this cold underworld. If you donβt believe, you know what to do..."
Bei Ran just grunted in pain, "How can I believe it just based on your word alone? If you want me to believe, youβd better provide solid evidence!"
"Evidence? You are about to die and you still want evidence?" Song Xuyao laughed wildly, almost as annoying as the thunderous weather.
"Even if Iβm dying, I want to die with clarity!" Bei Ran looked at Song Xuyao, who had lost his sanity in his quest for revenge, engrossed in the madness of retaliation.
At that moment, Song Xuyao took out an old medical report from his person and threw it to Bei Ran, "Then take a look at this!"
Bei Ran took it in hand. It was a test report that stated, the man who had relations with Song Chenxi had had his **** tested by the doctor, and indeed, he was a blood relative of the Song Family. It was Gu Qingchen who had the kind of relations with his cousin Song Chenxi that only a man and a woman have. The person who extracted this report unexpectedly was none other than Song Xingbang.
Bei Ran suddenly understood, no wonder. It was an event that nobody wanted to bring up; it was an indelible scar for anyone and a scandal that the prestigious Song family wanted to cover up.
Bei Ran was silent for a while before asking, "How did she die?"
"Suicide!" When Song Xuyao uttered these two words, he almost choked up, "Such a beautiful girl, but she cut her wrists. I will never forget the sight of her blood-covered body. By that time, she was already two months pregnant... She left this world with regrets, leaving us behind forever..."
Bei Ran looked at the photo on the gravestone; the girlβs smile was so sweet, yet her departure was so tragic that anyone would find it heartbreaking.
Her heart also ached, and Gu Qingchen was still the lead actor in this tragedy.
"Do you think Gu Qingchen should pay with his life?" Song Xuyao pointed to the sky, "If it wasnβt for his indulgence, Chenxi wouldnβt have had relations with him or his child. But what about him? Heβs fine, Chenxi died so miserably, yet he got married and is living such a happy family life. I wonβt let him go, and neither will the heavens! And you, following such a twisted man, still loving him so faithfully, now that you know what kind of person he is, do you still believe in him?"
Bei Ran also looked up at the sky, watching the relentless storm, and said, "Song Xuyao, youβve said a lot to me today, and I can only express my regrets for Miss Songβs death. As for everything else youβve said about Qingchen, I will only believe what he tells me himself about what happened. So at this moment, I wonβt hold any of his past against him. I love him, and I trust him..."
"You crazy woman..." Song Xuyao pulled Bei Ran up and slammed her head against the stone tablet.
With a "bang," Bei Ran felt dizzy and nearly collapsed, blood flowing down her hair...
"Stop!" At this moment, a loud shout echoed, and Gu Qingchen had already rushed to Song Chenxiβs grave.
Wu Kang was closely following behind him. Seeing Bei Ranβs hair being grabbed by Song Xuyao and smashed against the tombstone, he immediately shouted, "Song Xuyao, stop! You know the law yet you break it, youβre abusing a citizen..."
"Donβt come any closer!" Song Xuyao suddenly drew a gun and pressed it to Bei Ranβs head, "Anyone who comes closer, Iβll kill her first!"
Gu Qingchen stood in the storm, his face a canvas of desolation. If possible, he would never wish to step before Song Chenxiβs gravestone in his entire life. However, for Bei Ran, he still came!
"Gu Qingchen, since you slept with Chenxi, have you ever seen her? After her death, did you send her off on her last journey? Until today, did you ever visit her even once?" Song Xuyao bellowed angrily, "Gu Qingchen, you havenβt! You are nothing but a cold-blooded, merciless, cruel bastard! Chenxiβs fate was so tragic, what have you done for her? What have you done for her? Yet today, for this woman, you come! Tell me, what do you have to say to Chenxi?"
Gu Qingchen remained silent; he didnβt even glance at the tombstone but kept his eyes fixed on Bei Ran, whispering softly, "Bei Ran, I should not have dragged you into this."
Bei Ran suddenly burst into tears, having endured for a long time and staying strong in front of Song Xuyao, though she was afraid, she did not want to show defeat before him.
But at this moment, Gu Qingchenβs eyes still only had her, how could she not cry with emotion!
"Qingchen, Iβm alright..." Bei Ran was also gazing at him, as the rain continued to fall on him. He was wearing only a long-sleeved white shirt and black trousers. Despite the rain soaking his clothes and soft hair, he still looked exceedingly distinguished.
Gu Qingchen was a doctor, and he could tell at a glance that her head was injured. How could she be alright?
Moreover, Song Xuyao was a bastard capable of anything!
"Song Xuyao, let her go!" Gu Qingchen said sternly, "Our grudges shouldnβt involve an innocent woman."
"If you want me to release her, thatβs possible!" Song Xuyao said, "What kind of gesture should you show for Chenxi? She died at the age of 20, Gu Qingchen, how can you live so comfortably all these years?"
For the first time, Gu Qingchen looked towards the girl on the tombstone; his little cousin from his memories was a past so painful to recall. He said with an icy expression, "I can only express my regret for Chenxiβs death!"
"Gu Qingchen, can you be even more heartless?" Song Xuyaoβs eyes seemed ablaze with fire, "A human life, a young girl in the prime of life, a girl you got pregnant, who left this world together with her child. And you? Six years later, a simple expression of regret suffices for you?"
Gu Qingchen turned to look at Bei Ran, still enduring the pain. With just a minor injury, she would act childishly in his arms, but now, after being beaten bloody by Song Xuyao and soaked in the rain for so long, she told him she was fine...
"Song Xuyao, Iβll say it once more, let go of Bei Ran!" Gu Qingchen stepped forward.
Song Xuyao laughed wildly: "The more you worry about her, the more I want to torture her slowly... Gu Qingchen, now you know the pain in my heart! You killed Chenxi, you can imagine how much it hurts me, she was my life... And you, with a simple expression of regret, can you repay what she has lost?"
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Gu Qingchen faced off against Song Xuyao.
The two men stood very close, almost the same height, both scions of prestigious families; one, a grace-filled gentleman, the other, a justice-driven, obsessively vengeful policeman!
Song Chenxi was their sister, and if it werenβt for that one night, Song Chenxi would have been living well.
Then, Gu Qingchen would still be a gentlemanly Great Doctor, and Song Xuyao a sunny, just policeman.
Moreover, there was one more layer of relationship between them β they were cousins.
But that one night, shattered all their relations!
Every one of them, couldnβt return to what they used to be!
Seeing himself living in such agony, yet Gu Qingchen living so blissfully with a wife and children, Song Xuyao felt even more imbalanced inside.
"Gu Qingchen, kneel before Chenxiβs grave and confess your wrongs to her!" Song Xuyao pointed the gun at Bei Ranβs head.
Gu Qingchenβs cold eyes, like the chilliest waters of the Arctic Ocean, peered through the rain mist at Song Xuyao, who was already crazed for revenge.
"Do as I say! Otherwise, I will blow her head off with one shot!" Song Xuyao declared arrogantly.
